Should deep-sea mining be accelerated or suspended? Perhaps what truly needs to be answered is not "whether to start mining or not", but "whether the evidence is sufficient".

He's been called Australia's Elon Musk. This is his 'trillion-dollar' plan
He has the chic of a Silicon Valley tech bro and a clean energy pitch for investors, but will Gerard Barron's deep-sea mining dream do more harm than good?
